Please note that Interstate 90 will be closed this weekend across
South Dakota. This closure will allow the Federal Government free
access to haul a 200 ton piece of coal to Mt. Rushmore so that
President Obama can be added to the Presidents on the monument.

This might be a good time to get some acetone and remove that silly
pirate graphic on the back of your boat. Yo Ho indeed. SNERK
Happy Easter

I wonder if anyone of them has walked the plank?

So do I. I just have more of an understanding as to why they do what they
do.
25000 ships per year to pick from. That also puts the patrolling issue in
perspective.

The US is no longer in a position where it can afford to police and
protect the world. Many nations resent our efforts and consider it
meddling. Biting the hand that feeds you is what it seems like. Some
other nations are becoming stronger because they work hard, produce real
goods and services, protect themselves and realize trade deficits are
not good. This liberal mindset,the US is mesmerized by now, isn't working.

If coal had the density of water, 200 tons would occupy a 18 foot
cube. Since coal doesn't float it would actually be smaller.
